Casio Unveils the New EX-FR200 and EX-ZR5000

Casio Malaysia recently unveiled the new EX-FR200 and EX-ZR5000 during a media launch held at the Armada Petaling Jaya Hotel, which is set to take the global phenomenon of selfie taking to new heights.

Targeted at selfie lovers, the new EX-FR200 takes an entire 180-degree image with the press of a button, capturing a wider background, including the user and companions, no matter which angle of view.

In addition to Dome View capture, the camera takes 360-degree horizontal Panorama photos and videos, as well as 208-degree diagonal Super Wide Angle photos and videos, offering flexibility for virtually any kind of scene. It is waterproof, freeze-proof and impact resistant, perfect for outdoor activities.

Also showcased was the EX-ZR5000, the latest addition to Casio’s EXILIM ZR series of compact digital cameras. This new model now features an upgraded 19mm super wide-angle lens and Wide View Photo mode to deliver expansive and high-impact scenic photographs.

Capture more action in one frame with the 19mm super wide-angle lens, perfect for fitting in scenic backgrounds, even in ‘selfies’ and ‘wefies’. 

Its bright F2.7 moulded glass lens also produces sharper images with outstanding resolution by correcting optical aberration, reducing surface reflection and ghosting. 

Malaysia's number one female drifter, Leona Chin was present at the launch to share her experience of using the FR200 during her travels as well as capturing her drifting action moments.

The FR200 retails at RM2, 399 while the ZR5000 retails at RM1, 949 respectively.

Both models are expected to be in the market by the end of October 2016.
